Introducing Paulette Brown, outgoing ABA president William Hubbard joked that Brown clearly has the
strength and stamina to take up the presidency—because if you try to join her on her daily walks, "your ankles will burn like fire."

Brown, a partner at Locke Lord in Morristown, New Jersey, made good on that introduction by announcing an ambitious list of presidential initiatives for her 2015-2016
term, which will begin at the close of the 2015 ABA Annual Meeting in Chicago. First among these was the Commission on Diversity and Inclusion 360, an initiative to build on existing ABA work toward
a more diverse and inclusive profession. To that end, she said she’d already formed partnerships with critical groups, including the Department of Justice and the National Center for State
Courts.Read more

The Atta family locked up their Temecula, Calif., home and went on vacation in 2012. While they were gone, Victor Cheng moved in.

Cheng had owned the home before the Attas, but he lost it in foreclosure. Nonetheless, he filed a fraudulent deed with the county recorder’s office, transferred the
utilities into his name and even tried to evict the Attas after their return. During his prosecution for burglary, trespassing and filing a false document, he insisted that he was not the person
being prosecuted because the indictment spelled his name in all capital letters.Read more

After being in prison and on probation for the past decade, convicted con man Frederick Banks had a taste of freedom this summer. But it didn’t last long.

Known for his prolific federal court litigation, determined by a magistrate to include more than 300 meritless suits between 2004 and 2013, Banks apparently may have
tried a new tactic in order to get back at an FBI agent who helped put him in prison, according to the Associated Press and the
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

In a Craigslist post, Banks sought sex partners for the FBI agent, identified in the case as "TP," providing the agent’s name, address and phone number in Florida,
authorities allege. Banks was indicted, initially under seal, for interstate stalking. This week he was ordered held until trial in the Western District of Pennsylvania case, as a security risk, in
part due to his litigious history.

"I find defendant is a serious threat to the safety of TP, and family, and potentially others with whom the defendant has legal disputes," wrote U.S. Magistrate Judge
Keith Pesto.

It isn’t clear from news coverage how Banks got hold of the FBI agent’s contact information in Florida. TP was stationed in Pittsburgh when he worked on Banks’
case.

An attorney for Banks could not immediately be reached Wednesday for comment, the AP article says.Read more

A Touro law graduate who financed his education with a $69,000 loan in 1996 says he’ll owe more than $1.5 million by the time he retires in 23 years.

John Koch, now 46, was unable to pass the New York bar exam, despite three tries, according to Cable News Channel
12 (sub. req.). He has worked as a compliance manager, an insurance agent and a painter. He is also a law school scamblogger who uses the pseudonym JDPainterGuy, Legal Skills Prof Blog reports. The video is posted at
YouTube.

When Koch defaulted on his loan, penalties added $40,000 to $50,000 to the balance, he tells the television station. He currently owes more than $300,000. Now he is
deferring loan payments under a federal program, which adds $2,000 in interest to his balance each month. As a result, he will be charged interest on interest, a debt expert tells Cable News Channel
12.

Another expert, Cryn Johannsen, tells the TV station that huge student debts contribute to depression. People find her blog by searching online for the words "suicide" and "student loan debt." Johannsen is a journalist and an advocate for student loan debtors who runs a nonprofit called Education
Matters.

Koch tells News Channel 12 the debt burden harmed his former marriage and affected his mental outlook. "When I'm 69 years old, I will have carried student loan debt for
50 years," Koch tells the reporter. The station broadcast the interview on Feb. 12 as part of a series called "Student Loan Trap."Read more﻿

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled for a drug defendant who argued that police should have obtained a warrant before attaching a GPS device to his car to monitor his
movements.

Justice Antonin Scalia wrote the opinion for a court that was unanimous in its finding that the police conduct was a search within the meaning of the Fourth
Amendment.

SCOTUSblog initially
called the decision "a big loss for the federal government." The case, United States v. Jones, is an appeal by
Antoine Jones, who was convicted of conspiracy to distribute cocaine after police installed a GPS device on his Jeep Grand Cherokee.Read more﻿

Justice Clarence Thomas became emotional during a speech at his college alma mater on Thursday as he remembered the time he had dropped out of the seminary and got
kicked out of his home.

Thomas spoke to students at the College of Holy Cross in Worcester, Mass., about the priest who recruited him to the school and mentored him during his time there,
according to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, NECN.com and the Associated Press.
A new book, Fraternity, chronicles the lives of Thomas and four other men nurtured by the priest and former college president, the Rev. John Brooks.

Before going to Holy Cross, he was just a "lonely kid," Thomas said. "In the summer of 1968, I had no place to go and no idea what I was going to do," Thomas said. "I
was 19. "My only hope was Holy Cross College, a place I'd never seen and had barely heard of."

At the school, Thomas said he "enjoyed the first brief glimpses of what it meant to be educated" and pledged to give up his anger. "It was here, directly in front of the
chapel, on the morning of April 16, 1970, that I promised the Almighty God that if he took hate out of my heart I would never hate again," Thomas recalled. "He did and I have not."Read more﻿

After 20 years on the high court, the justice is known for standing alone in dissent.

WASHINGTON — Each summer, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas invites his four new law clerks to his home to watch a movie.

Not just any movie, but the 1949 film version of the classic of libertarian conservatism, Ayn Rand's "The Fountainhead."

The movie's hero, played by Gary Cooper, is an idealistic but stubborn architect, who, as Rand wrote, "stood alone against the men of his time."
A character, it might be said, a lot like Thomas himself. "If you think you are right, there is nothing wrong with being the only one," he said last year in explaining his fondness for the movie. "I
have no problem being the only one."

Every nation has a creation myth, or origin myth, which is the story people are taught of how the nation came into being. Ours says the United States began with
Columbus's so-called "discovery" of America, continued with settlement by brave Pilgrims, won its independence from England with the American Revolution, and then expanded westward until it became
the enormous, rich country you see today.

That is the origin myth. It omits three key facts about the birth and growth of the United States as a nation. Those facts demonstrate that White Supremacy is
fundamental to the existence of this country.Read

Todayeconomic slaveryhas many people indebt chains. Economic or debt slavery ismore efficientfor its masters than the slavery of the Old South. Debt slaves must
feed, house and clothe themselves. Thedebt slave masters, thebanks,credit card companies, and even student loan providers, all rely upon the courts and justice system for enforcement of debt. When economic slaves can’t pay back their debt, they are told to get a second job. Or a third job.

Meanwhile, when thewell-connected mastersof economic slaves get in a financial bind, and
bring our economy to the brink of collapse, they call on politicians in Washington, DC for bailouts.Bankers don’t get second
or third jobs, they get million-dollar bonuses.

Theeconomic slave mastershave access to the best lawyers, sympathetic judges, and sheriff’s
deputies ready to haul the debt slave to court, or throw him and his family out of their
home and into the street. Does anyone see a problem with thisscenario? Where is the John Brown for today’sdebt slaves?﻿

"I really don't like the term 'PTSD,’” Department of Veterans Affairs psychiatrist Dr. Jonathan Shay told PBS' "Religion & Ethics Newsweekly" in 2010. "He says the diagnostic
definition of "post-traumatic stress disorder" is a fine description of certain instinctual survival skills that persist into everyday life after a person has been in mortal danger — but the
definition doesn't address the entirety of a person's injury after the trauma of war. "I view the persistence into civilian life after battle," he says, "... as the simple or primary
injury." Dr. Shay on YouTube

Dr. Shay has his own name for the thing the clinical definition of PTSD leaves out. He calls it "moral injury" — and the term is catching on with both the VA and the
Department of Defense.

Moral injury, Dr. Shay says, can happen when "there is a betrayal of what's right by someone who holds legitimate authority in a high-stakes situation."read more

Seven Year Anniversary - YouSue.org to NoSue.org

Seven years ago I started the Justice Network with the domain name YouSue.org. This name was chosen in the spirit of YouTube, the video-sharing website that
empowered ordinary people to produce and share video.

Through this website I have met folks from all over the country. Some of their stories are profiled here. Many have reached the conclusion that America’s justice system is broken.

The official Justice Network Internet address is now NoSue.org. This reflects the sad truth that for most Americans the justice system is broken, just a parody of justice. Reform American courts or
avoid them. Your life, health and wealth is at risk. But don’t just take my word, listen to the experts on this site.
